Thanks so much for playing and leaving feedback! Very happy you enjoyed playing it :)

Great game! Cute mechanic ideas, reminded me of the game my team submitted for this jam a bit so I wanted to check yours out :) really neat graphics and neat puzzles! I could totally see this as a fully polished game with faster char movement, some background music, and more sound effects. Well done!

Thank you so much for the in depth feedback! I'm so glad you appreciate the little details and polish we put into the game, we had a lot of fun making all the art/music match that cozy atmosphere! Very valid feedback on the large rooms, appreciate you calling that out. Maybe we can go back and make some levels more zoomed in / take up less tiles if there is less going on in a level. Thanks again for playing and taking time to comment!

Ahahaha we had issues with Godot physics which led to us hardcoding the ice block xD Thanks for sharing this funny bug, we have had several fun bugs with the ice block that we will try to fix after the jam. And yup we already have the coyote jump fix in on our end! Just waiting for the jam to complete so we can update the game! Thanks so much for leaving feedback and I'm so glad you found the game fun!

Beautiful peaceful game. Loved the art and the unique fishes and the animations, was super fun to play! A minor nitpick would be to make the wording more clear, like I didn't know what the difference between "lots of oxygen" and "plenty of oxygen" for example meant. Awesome game!

Thank you so much for the kind feedback!

Haha, sorry your world record got interrupted! Would be cool if we had a speedrunning leaderboard :thinking: But thanks for leaving your feedback! I love your refreshing analogy, it made me smile :)

Yesss firegirl + waterboy was one of my personal biggest inspos when working on this! Yup the jump issue has already been fixed on our side, we are waiting for the jam to complete so we can update it :'D Not your fault at all, many people have been experiencing it. And yeah the transformation sequence seems to be the most confusing gameplay mechanic, we couldn't think of a neat way to explain it in the game besides some tutorial levels but it seems like it's not enough. (+ the sunflower / iceflower assets are a lil confusing) But thank you so much for leaving such great feedback and I'm so glad you enjoyed our game! Thanks for playing!

Oh very interesting, thank you for sharing that sample! I'm not sure the exact method to fix it for the browser version but I'll keep it in mind when we make improvements to the game. Appreciate you taking the time to record it and get back to me!

Yay glad you liked it!! Yup that is definitely something we want to improve, we have already added a coyote jump to our game locally and will update the game right after the jam :) It should fix most of the jump issues. Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah I think I was trying to make a fire flower that did not look too much like the mario one, then thought "well a SUNflower could represent the SUN (heat)" sooo that ended up being the design but I totally see why so many people are confused :'D Thank you for the feedback, I'm glad at least you enjoyed our game! Yeah our tutorials were a little unclear, especially didn't know when / how to best introduce the R button. Was easy to miss, not your fault! Thanks again for playing and leaving feedback!

Thank you for the valuable feedback! Yup the designs for the transformation was not too clear, that's probably on me :'D But thank you so much for telling us as we will improve going forwards, and I'm so glad you liked the game overall!

Haha that would have been amazing, but it's already very good!

Oh no, did the downloadable exe work better? Was it the music and/or the rain sounds? Thanks for the kind feedback!

So glad you liked our puzzles!! Probably needs a bit of tweaking, we added some coyote jump  and will update the game after the jam voting is over :) Thank you so much for the feedback! Hopefully we can make more levels in the future :D

Thank you so much!! We came up with many ideas for the theme, this was our favorite! Glad we ended up going with it :)

This is such a fun game!! I love the idea and execution, super well done! I like the start and end, it really made the whole game immersive and feel like a short narrative. Great work!

Thank you so much for the kind feedback!! Really happy to hear you enjoyed the puzzles, I was afraid it was the weakest part of the game since none of our team is particularly strong with puzzle design (we learned a LOT while making them!) but it's such a pleasant surprise that people have been enjoying them. Hopefully after the jam we can make even more fun puzzles for this game if we have the time / energy :D Thanks again for stopping by and playing our game!

Yesss we got some inspo from Celeste for this game, even though they are a more action-y platformer for sure! Thanks for the kind feedback, I'm so glad you like the feeling of our game layout and that it was cozy!

Thank you so much!! I'm glad to hear we nailed the cozy vibes!

Thank you so much!!

AAAAA thank you so much!! Yep we had some other playtesters give similar feedback, it was tough trying to make it aesthetic and also make sense / be cohesive in terms of the form transformation design. So glad you had fun though even with that difficulty! Thanks for playing!

Thank you so much!! I will check it out!

Thank you!!

Thank you so much for the kind feedback!!

Thank you so much!! Yes 100% agree; we added a bit of coyote jump after submission and think it helps; we will update the game upload after the jam to include it!

Haha no worries, I had issues with it too. We added a coyote jump after submission and are waiting to upload it after the game jam, it made the game a lot smoother, so hopefully that makes platforming a bit easier :) Thank you so much for your kind feedback!!

Thank you so much!!

That's awesome to hear!! So glad you enjoyed our game and levels :D Thanks for playing and leaving feedback!

Super cute and fun game, love the peacefulness and the fish swimming around. Would be amazing if you could turn it into a larger game with more upgrades like bigger aquariums, more fish. The potential is literally limitless. Thanks for submitting this gem!

Fun game concept! Perspective was very unique and I enjoyed the art style. Would be awesome to see more games like this. Only nitpick is I wasn't sure which way I should lean, if that would improve my speed or not. Maybe I needed to replay it more to understand the mechanics.

I LOVED this game! So cozy and peaceful, reminded me of Stardew valley in terms of vibes. I adored the dialogue it was super well written and showcased the characters very well / was super relatable. The combat was surprisingly challenging closer to the final days, I was struggling hard even with big upgrades. But that made it fun and engaging and I was so determined to finish the game! I love the art and animations, super expressive especially the portraits and the animations of the enemies. I would love to see more added to the game like being able to cleanup around the farm, or more complex battle setups, maybe some more defensive mechanisms added. As a nit pick, the HP bars of the plants were too small to read and the roads were a little confusing (I appreciate the speed up but it wasn't clear to me why I was speeding up at first, it might not be necessary for this game?). But overall GREAT JOB, thanks for a wonderful game experience! Hope yall work on this more and / or make more games in the future, I'd love to play more!

I wish the mechanics were more explained to me, I wasn't quite sure what I was getting points for. But the game was super funny and chaotic (in a good way). Reminds me of Untitled Goose Game, the little joys of doing silly things and honking. The dialogue was pretty funny. I could see this being expanded to a longer game with more concrete objectives / types of tricks to land!

I think it was a little tough to tell what I was dying to, either losing air or getting hit by enemies. But I liked the animation of the main character and the premise of the game. Overall great beginner's game! Would love to see this game polished up a bit more.

Really satisfying / polished gameplay! I think the dash is a little too overpowered, found myself using it quite a bit over bites, but maybe I didn't make it too far into the game to see the upgrades. Great work though! Art, animation, sound effects all super crisp and work amazing.

The music transformed me. I feel like I was in a movie saving the world. Excellent premise and fun gameplay, super great for your first game jam, well done! For constructive feedback would be good to have more cohesive art style across sprites.

I wish there were some sound effects to accompany the attacks but overall I enjoyed the idea of the game. I'd like to see more cards (obviously the trading not working probably hinders seeing some cards). I especially liked the fish AI and animation, it was really satisfying to fight them and see them twirl away, haha. Great work on the cat animation too! Not easy to animate a cat in water :)

Super cute game!! I loved the music, sound effects, and art they worked really well together, and the game design matches the theme pretty well. Would love to see even more mechanics implemented / see the game get worked on further after the jam! Nice work!

Thanks so much for the feedback!! So glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks Sam! Glad you love the polish, I loved polishing our game too!
